KEM-based authentication for TLS 1.3

Abstract

This document gives a construction for a Key Encapsulation Mechanism (KEM)-based authentication mechanism in TLS 1.3. This proposal authenticates peers via a key exchange protocol, using their long-term (KEM) public keys.

Keywords: key exchange, Transport Layer Security (TLS), post-quantum cryptography
